This morning at Merri-Mac started bright and early at 7 am with our usual cabin cleaning routine. Afterward, we headed straight to breakfast, where we enjoyed a hearty meal of scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and coffee cake. Following breakfast, we went to Chapel and listened to an inspiring true story with Will.

Campers jumped right into activities, after a brief safety talk . In DIY, they made and painted stools. Over in gymnastics, everyone was flipping their way into fun. The climbing activity had campers scaling the tower with enthusiasm and so many more fun things in activities.  It’s been a fantastic day filled with creativity, athleticism, and adventure!

For lunch, we had delicious pizza and refreshing oranges. After lunch it was announced the Golden Eagle won the Battle Ball (yesterday’s evening activity). Afterward, it was time for some rest and free time. During free time, campers enjoyed a variety of activities including gaga games, pickleball, and more. The gaga pit was buzzing with energy as campers showcased their agility and strategy, while the pickleball courts were alive with friendly competition. Many campers also took the opportunity to relax, read, or chat with friends, making the most of this time.

After rest time, we dove into two more activities today it was  a perfect blend of structured activities allowing each camper to explore new interests, build skills, and create lasting memories. And then we had dinner and it was filled with chatter about the day’s adventures. Then, tonight’s evening activity was announced!  The campers, decked out in their tribe attire, quest to track down their counselors. Counselors dressed  in all black,With laughter and determination to not be found, the campers  tried to find their counselors and Upon discovery they will push the counselor they found in the lake! To top it all, Counselors have mysterious points which can be plus or minus!

After the excitement of Counselor Hunt, campers returned to their cabins, winding down and preparing for bedtime. They eagerly anticipated the adventures that awaited them on the next day at camp, ready to make more memories and embrace new experiences.
